    But why continue to exploit fellow earthlings at that point? If mother’s are left to their own devices, the minimal amount of milk left over from the calf’s rightful share will never be enough to sustain dairy industries. You only get any significant amount of mother’s milk because the calf is either slaughtered immediately or kidnapped and sustained on some soy slurry. Cut out the middle man and drink the soy milk yourself. Chickens were selectively bred into unnatural and painful amounts of egg-laying for our benefit, let them brood in peace, which allows them to stop laying painful periods. Imagine if we forced women to sustain and repeat their periods for full months, quite vile.

    Also most fishing and hunting is propped up on subsidaries and breeding programs, literally shooting fish in a barrel. (“most” being an operative word here. Please don’t return with bad faith tired “indigenous peoples” argument)
